Okay this is my second attempt writeing this because I accidentally reblogged it to the ectoberhaunt blog and had to delete it.
But no you are not stupid.
Your brain is wired diffrent.
ADHD is a disorder of the frontal lobe.
It affects all of these listed areas.
Itās not just ānot being able to focus or being too hyperā.
Itās also a dopamine deficiency.
You canāt make tonic dopmine.
You can only get dopmine in short spurts by doing certain things.
This is why so many people ADHD struggle with Addictive personalities and turn to drugs or alcohol to self-medicate.
This is what dopmine does.
And being fucking understimated is horrid.
You ever feel so board and so empty and helpless that youād rather die?
Thatās a classic symptom.
Thatās why people with ADHD are 5 times more likely to kill themselves.
THIS is why ADHD awareness month is important.
It broke my heart that so many people with ADHD reblogged my posts not even realizing we have a month.
You deserve to understand you have a disorder that drastically impacts your life.
You deserve access to medication, and good doctors, and good resources, and managment skills.
You deserve to understand that you have probably been horribly abused or gas lit by the people in your life that dont understand your struggle because they never stopped to try too.
You deserve to understand that you are not stupid.
